How do I sign in?
Music League offers two ways to sign in. You can use whichever is most convenient for you:
- Email and password — Create an account with your email address and a password you choose.
- Continue with Spotify — Sign in using your Spotify account. If you use this method, your Spotify music service is connected automatically.
You'll find both options on the sign-in screen, with "Forgot password?" available for password recovery.
Do I still need to connect Spotify?
Yes. Signing in tells us who you are, but Music League also needs access to Spotify so it can search for songs, play music, and build the round playlists you'll vote on.
If you sign in with Spotify, your music service is connected in the same step — you're done. If you sign in with email and password, you'll be asked to connect Spotify right after. You can't join or create a league until Spotify is connected.
I signed up with one method but want to use the other. Will I lose my account?
No. If you sign in with a different method using the same email address, your accounts are linked automatically. For example, if you signed up with email and password and later tap "Continue with Spotify" using the same email, you'll be logged into your existing account — not a new one.
The email Music League uses is whatever's on the account you signed up with — for Spotify sign-ins, that's the email on your Spotify profile.
I tried "Continue with Spotify" and got an error. Why?
If your Spotify account doesn't have an email address on file, Music League can't create or sign you in to an account using "Continue with Spotify." Every Music League account is tied to an email address — that's how we identify your account, send you league notifications, and let you recover access if you ever lose your Spotify connection.
This usually happens with older Spotify accounts that were created before Spotify required an email, or accounts created through certain partner sign-ups.
You have two ways to fix it:
- Add an email to your Spotify account. Go to spotify.com/account/profile, add and verify an email address, then come back and try "Continue with Spotify" again.
- Sign up with email and password instead. Create your Music League account on the sign-up screen using any email you control, then connect your Spotify account from the screen that follows. You'll end up with the same result — a Music League account with Spotify connected.
